The White Ship: Conquest, Anarchy and the Wrecking of Henry I's Dream by Charles Spencer

Did not finish book. Stopped at 39%.
I gave up at 39%. I had somehow got the idea that this would be a fictionalized story about the sinking of The White Ship and the consequences it had for England, but this is very much non-fiction about William the Conqueror, Henry I, his son William, Queen Matilda and many other people and their relationships, and I just couldn't focus on it. Charles Spencer has clearly done his research and my giving up is not his fault - it was just the wrong book at the wrong time for me. I think I need to read this, rather than listen to it.
